Head in the Clouds

I am currently sitting on a bus in Tena (a small jungle town). In about two hours we will be loading into a canoe for the final leg of our journey. After about an hour canoe ride we'll be at camp. Well, at the river part of the camp. It is then a "short" hike uphill to camp. It doesn't sound too bad except that I have about 1000 pounds of baggage to lug up there. Fortunately I can
Make a couple of trips if necessary.

Yesterday was a beautiful five hour bus ride from Quito to Tena through the cloud forests. I've often been told to get my head out of the clouds... Never before has that meaning been more literal. Of course, I had no desire to do so as it was absolutely stunning. I took a few photos through spotted windows as we were driving through the clouds but my total battery power is mostly depleated.

Apparently this (my iphone) will work there so I will have Internet access via it. It is super expensive to use but I will update as much as possible. I'll check in again once I reach camp.
